VENIPUNCTURE
Manner of inserting a needle attached
to a syringe to a palpable vein to
collect blood for laboratory testing
Specimen collected:
Most widely/commonly used blood
1. Blood culture sample in all laboratory tests
2. Citrate (blue) Lot test to performed
3. Non-additive (red)
4. Heparin
5. EDTA Things to remember!
6. Black oxalate
SIR BABY: In skin puncture there also order of 1. Proper identification of patient
draw because finger is puncture it is normal a. You’ll let the patient state their
process and platelets attracted and go to those own name
sites to form the clot so there could be b. In Coma state patient you’ll ask the
AGGREGATED platelet that can interfere your relative of the patient and let them
testing state the name of the patient
c. If there is no relative check the id
tag or let nurse identify patient for
you
Tube should be filled with blood starts with:
8. Label
a) Label them accordingly and after
transfer the blood (name, age,
gender, room, initials of
phlebotomist)
b) We’re not allowed to Relabel
9. Disposal
a) Needle should be in puncture
resistant bottle
b) Yellow bag in infectious material
Newborns up to 18 months
METHOD OF COLLECTION: • External Jugular Vein
• Temporal vein
SINGLE COLLECTION *Antecubital fossa (SITE OF CHOICE)
SYRINGE
Transfers to a single tubes Older children (18months to 3 yo)
MULTIPLE COLLECTION • Femoral vein
ETS • Long saphenous vein
HEMATOLOGY 2 LABORATORY: BLOOD COLLECTION (TRANS-1)
Difficult to count
* Small size
* Adhesiveness
* Aggregation: blood smears should be
done quickly to prevent aggregation
Quantification of platelets
In an area of the film where the RBCs barely Well stained blood smear =200 rbc =7-20
touch, with a few overlapping, the number of platelets
platelets in 10 oil immersion fields is counted
In instances of significant anemia or
On automated machine platelets are low erythrocytosis, use the following formula
but on well prepared smear there are lot for the platelet estimate:
of platelets because they were attached to
the wall of neutrophils - PLATELET
SATTELITISM
USE SODIUM CITRATE TO CORRECT In differential counting we must count
SATELLISTISM 100 white cell
Cannot report patient platelets count And that 100 wbc must achieve
solely on direct method because it is just regardless on no. of fields you counted
an estimate it will depend on the COUNT CELL WHERE IT IS EQUALLY
distribution of the cell so mas better yung DISTRUBUTED
automated analyzer and confirm by To know platelet in a smear move fine
indirect method adjustment if there is structure or
Every platelet count computed in indirect granules inside it is PLATELET
method there is equivalent estimate Perfect circle
color disappear or black if fine
Performing a platelet estimate: adjustment it was not a PLATELET
1. Select an area of the blood film in which most
RBCs are separated from one another with
minimal overlapping of RBCs.
